It is possible that Raiders Thomas Collins and Samuel Lackey might have been from Garrard as well - but they may have been from Jessamine, as was the leader of the raid Bennett Young, or Madison. The same query applies to them as well as any other of the raiders who might have been from there.

Searching for any information regarding a George M. Robinson with sons Benjamin F. Robinson and Joseph Robinson in Fayette or Madison Counties, Kentucky before 1835. Bejamin F. married Somerville Withers, daughter of Quentin Withers and Sarah Sallee Withers. Any information regarding any of the people will be greatly appreciated. Thank You!

WILLCOCKSON, WILCOCKSON, WILCOXSON, WILCOXEN ETC. for over 100 years it has been a tradition in my family that Sarah Boone Willcockson, who was the sister of Daniel Boone, was buried in Madison County. This has not yet been proved. Her place of burial remains unknown, to my knowledge. Please share your knowledge with me about any Willcocksons etc. that were in Madison County up to 1840
